Collection and Use of personal Data

We collect personal data, if you provide us with such data voluntarily when opening a customer account or, in the course of placing an order, e.g. by filling in a corresponding form. Without your separate consent, we shall not use personal data provided by you except for the purpose of carrying out and processing your order.

Moreover, on our website, using tracking technologies, we collect and store information on how you use our website for marketing- and optimisation purposes. When accessing our website, your browser automatically transmits the following data to our web server: Time and date of access, url of the address previously visited (so called referrer URL), the amount of data transferred, type and version of the browser you used, your operating system and your ip-address. Using a pseudonym one can create an utilisation profile. To this end, one can use cookies, which are stored in the local cache of your internet browser. The cookies allow for recognition of the internet browser. This data shall be stored separately from other data which you supply while using our offer and shall not be used to personally identify the user of this website. This data shall not be linked to a particular person. After having undergone statistical analyses the data will be deleted.

Security

We shall secure our website and any other systems through technical and organisational measures against destruction, loss, access, changes or distribution of your data by unauthorised persons. In spite of regular controls, complete protection against all risks is not possible. We do point out, that any data transfer over the internet (e.g. when communicating by e-mail) may carry some security gaps. It is not possible to completely protect data from being accessed by third parties.

Use of Facebook-Plugins (Like-Button)

We have integrated plugins of the social network Facebook, 1601 South California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA 94304, USA. You can identify the Facebook-plugins by the Facebook-logo or the “Like-Botton” on our site. You can find an overview of Facebook-plugins here: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/.
When visiting our sites, the plugin will establish a direct link between your browser and the Facebook-server. As a result, Facebook receives the information that you have visited our site with your ip-address. By klicking the Facebook “Like-Button” while being logged into your Facebook-account, you can link the content of our sites to your Facebook profile. As a result, Facebook can relate your visiting our sites to your user account. We do point out, that, as provider of the sites, we do not have any knowledge as to the content of the transferred data or of its use by Facebook. You can find further information concerning this in Facebook’s privacy statement under http://de-de.facebook.com/policy.php.

Please log out of your Facebook user account if you do not wish for Facebook to be able to relate your visiting our sites to your Facebook user account.

Use of Google Analytics

This website uses Google Analytics, a web analytics tool of Google Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses so called “cookies”, text files stored on your computer and which allow for an analysis of the way you use our website. The data created by the cookie about the way you use of our website (including your IP-address) will be transferred to a server of Google in the USA and will be stored there.

Google will use this information in order to analyse the way you use the website, to compile reports about website activity for website operators and to provide further services related to website use and internet access. Google might, as the case may be, transfer this data to third parties, where so required by law or to the extent that third parties process this data on behalf of Google. Google will under no circumstance associate your IP-address with other data of Google.

You can prevent cookies from being stored by changing the setting of your browser software accordingly; however, we draw your attention to the fact, that in that event you may not be able to use the complete website functionality. By using this website you declare your consent with Google processing the data collected about you by way of the above mentioned methods and for the above mentioned purposes. One may, at any time, object to any data collection and storage with effect for the future. You can find our contact address below or in our legal notice. Alternatively you can also use the deactivation add-on by Google Analytics (http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=de), where available for your browser.

We would like to draw attention to the fact, that this website uses Google Analytics with the extension „_anonymizelp()“ and that, as a result, ip-adresses are only processed in an abridged way in order to exclude the possibility of establishing a direct personal relation.
